What she did is perfectly natural. Nature itself makes certain creatures appear photoshopped, though usually it does it to make them less visible: bigfoot, for example, is made to always appear blurry and out of focus.

ThatDarkFellow:Well, at least she had a good surgeon. It looks like subtle things, but with the way people abuse plastic surgery it could have been way, way, worse.

/she'll be "addicted" with in a year and look like a shoe box with a nose in two years

I do think thats the more sinister side of this kind of surgery. Once a slight improvement is observed (accurately or not) the compulsion sets in to continue the process. There is no shortage of photographic evidence to highlight the results.

Becoming? We've been narcissistic since, forever. People have been spending loads of money on surgery and other things to enhance themselves since it was invented who knows how long ago.

While this is true, the devotion to posting images of yourself, or your food, or sharing each and every brain fart you have via some form of social media, is new. People can't seem to stop showing off the most mundane things. I really do wonder what makes them think anyone is interested enough to watch in the first place. There seems to be so many narcissists there is no one left to be the audience.

'When you do see a picture of yourself hanging out, your instinct is, "oh I wish I were tanner or not wrinkled" or "wish this" and this is a natural response due to the culture we're gearing towards.'

Seldom does a woman say,"when you do see a picture of yourself hanging out, your instinct is I wish I had sucked my gut in""when you do see a picture of yourself hanging out, your instinct is I wish I had stuck to my diet""when you do see a picture of yourself hanging out, your instinct is I wish I had worked out more""when you do see a picture of yourself hanging out, your instinct is I wish I wasn't so vain"

I was much more impressed with the link to the South Korean plastic surgery patients who are having trouble getting back to their home countries because they don't look like their passport photo anymore.

It's only new because the ability to do so is new. Take the technology back in time and you'll end up with the same result.

You just made me think about Ancient Roman Facebook. That would be hilarious stuff.

Look up ancient Roman graffiti sometime. Remember one particular snippet where one tagger accused a collegue of being "a mediocre man."

/burn//like Pompeii.

That's exactly why I think it would be great. Roman graffiti was prolific and vulgar. Given what they did with actual walls, I can only imagine their virtual walls would have been awesome.
